I test road a T100 two years ago, great seat, good ergos, uninspiring handling and motor. Especially the motor. This spring I took a gals Bonnie for a test ride (the cheaper one with only a speedo) and the motor was much better. After market pipes made that much of a difference. Smaller front wheel helped the handling. It was a nice machine and I was impressed.
I think the CB is made to a higher standard and one can nit pik the two bikes and I would not trade my CB for one. But the Bonnie is a nice bike, some friends have them and they do well by them. The only way you could go wrong with it, if it did not fit you or did not do the job you bought it for. And that goes for either bike (as evidenced by the used CB's on the market, while a great bike, it's not for everyone).
Frankly, I think it boils down to guys that like twins and those that prefer in line fours or just about any motor. I like any good motor.
